Hiya, I'm pretty much in love with Stirling! I will also be applying for Primary Education but with specialism in Early Years. Considering applying for Psychology too but still unsure. Hopefully the Open Day will confirm my choices. Nice to know someone else is thinking about applying for primary ed. :smile:

Yeh if I get into Stirling I'll be staying in the Halls and guess what, I'm also applying to Aberdeen for Primary Teaching and Psychology with Gaelic! Still unsure about Aberdeen though. :smile:

I think it's fair to say we are now 'frenemies' or so to speak cause we have same course interests but that means we are in competition for places!

Looking forward to the Open Day then? I just got the programme and there is so much to do I don't think I have enough time! I really wanted to go to the Psychology lecture but I think I'm just going to go to the information desk. :smile:

I'm absolutely dreading the personal statement but I'm meant to have the first draft done by October! Did anyone else go to the Open Day today?

I went to the open day, I thought the university was great and the people I talked to were all really friendly and helpful. I'm also glad I went because I found out there will be a degree combination of Film & Media and Law available next year and that's kind of what I wanted to study all along (instead of history). :smile:
